Every fall prior to the beginning of Fall Semester, each college must run a notice in the local newspaper(s) stating that the college does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, or age; provide a brief summary of the college’s educational offerings; describe admission criteria and include the name, address, and phone number of the Title IX and Section 504 coordinator(s).
All colleges should have a link to their website (e.g., website listed and QR code) with a webpage detailing all Career and Technical Education (“CTE”) Program offerings. This page must contain a summary of each of these programs and your admissions criteria. For example, “(Name of college) invites students who earn a prerequisite GPA of 3.0 or higher to apply for (name of program). As an Equal Opportunity Institution, (name of college) does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed or religion, national or ethnic origin, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity), disability, age, political affiliation or belief, genetic information, veteran or military status, marital status, or citizenship status (except in those special circumstances permitted or mandated by law). Lack of English language skills will not be a barrier to admission in any CTE Program.”
